Arunachal film in Goa film fest
“Sonam”, Arunachal Pradesh’s first feature film that depicts polyandry in the Brokpa tribe, has been selected for the Indian panorama section of the international film festival to be held in Goa from November 26.
Y Eshe Dorjee Thongchi, a Sahitya Academy award winning writer who is also Arunachal’s tourism secretary, told a press conference that the film was based on his novel about polyandry practised by Brokpas, a sub-tribe of the Monpas.
Thonchi said “Sonam” was shot last year in Tawang and Dirang areas and the Monpas extended support because they knew the practice was prevalent in their society.
Male tribals spend six months a year away from home in search of food. When one tribesman goes to yak farms in high altitude, his brothers look after his family. This practice gives rise to polyandry in family.
Besides Arunachal, Brokpas are found in large numbers in high-altitude Himalayan ranges in Uttaranchal, Himachal Pradesh, Leh, Bhutan, Tibet and Mongolia, he said.
Directed by Ahshan Mazid, a Doordarshan official, the film’s features mostly local artistes who had never faced the camera before. They were trained at a 15-day workshop in Dirang before the shoot, he said.
